v-pkgconfig

This module implements the pkg-config tool as a library in pure V.

Features:

• Simple API, but still not stable, but shouldnt change much
• Runs 2x faster than original pkg-config
• Commandline tool that aims to be compatible with pkg-config
• Resolve full path for .pc file given a name
• Recursively parse all the dependencies
• Find and replace all inner variables

Todo/Future/Wish:

• 100% compatibility with pkg-config options
• Integration with V, to support pkgconfig with system()
• Strictier pc parsing logic, with better error reporting

Install

$ v install trufae.pkgconfig

$ ./bin/pkgconfig -h
